Shilly-shally ... Hang

Today’s word is shilly-shally ... to show indecision or hesitation; be irresolute; vacillate. (Dictionary.com)

Hang
Purposefully walking,
No shilly-shallying,
Straight towards the fateful branch,
Where she will hang, still.

Slowly spinning round,
Encasing her very self,
Not knowing the story’s end,
Yet doing what she must.

Inside, a miracle,
Unseen and undescribed,
Shifting from form to form,
From the dust to the sky.
